Chapter 65 This is our football, boy

Captain Bobby Coni said he wanted to give the newcomers some time, so everyone gave Menez time to see if he could gradually integrate into the team.

As a result, three rounds of leagues passed, and his performance did not improve at all. He was still like a Maverick on the court and did not seek cooperation with anyone. He only waited for others to pass the ball to him, but never considered passing the ball to a teammate with a better position. As a striker, he would decisively shoot. Although he should be a little selfish, he was too selfish to see his teammates, which was not a good thing.

Menez's poor performance naturally dragged down the team's performance. In the first three rounds, Metz drew and lost two, lost 1:4 to Paris Saint-Germain, 0:0 to home by the promoted team Le Mans (le_mans), and lost 0:2 to Saint-Etienne away.

After three rounds of the league, the team only scored one point and ranked third from the bottom. This made Metz's players feel very angry. You should know that even though they were thrilling to relegate last season, their results were very good at the beginning of the season - they won two wins and one draw in the three rounds of the league, ranking fifth with seven points, and from the first to fifth in the league, they were seven points, which can also be said to be tied for first place.

More and more people don’t like Menez inside the team. They don’t like Menez’s usual arrogant attitude. What they don’t like is that Menez doesn’t know how to cooperate with them on the court, and just want the whole team to serve him. It seems that they are right to pass the ball for him, and he pass the ball for them is just giving alms.

Chu Zhongtian was also a little unhappy with Menez. In the game, this genius boy wasted many passes. Many times when he passed the ball to Menez, he had already seen the next few steps in advance. As long as Menez could pass the ball to the side and then pass the ball to the middle, it would form a good opportunity to score. But after Menez received the ball, he turned around and dribbled the ball directly to Huanglong. The final result was that Huanglong did not hit it and the opportunity was also lost.

In the fourth round of the league, Metz faced Strasbourg at home, and Menez still started, and he still did his own thing and wasted his passes to him by his teammates.

After Chu Zhongtian passed the ball to him, he ran to an open position. At the same time, he also saw a gap in front of him. Ribery obviously also saw that gap, running diagonally and thrust forward. As long as Menetz can pass the ball over and he will push the ball directly, he will get a great chance to counter-offside singles.

Unfortunately, Menez fought alone with the opponent's defender and lost the ball. In order to prevent the opponent from counterattacking, Chu Zhongtian stepped forward and used a very fierce foul to stop Starasbourg's counterattack. For this, he paid the price of a yellow card.

Chu Zhongtian, who had climbed up from the ground, ignored the referee and yelled at Menez: "Passing the ball and passing the ball! Don't you know who passed the ball?"

Seeing him like this, the other Metz players said in their hearts: "Chu finally couldn't help it!"

Menez also seemed to think that he had lost the ball just now, but his arrogant personality did not allow him to give in. He responded with a hard neck: "I didn't see where you are!"

"Nonsense, you lower your head and just dribble the ball. Even if I stand in front of you, you will treat me as an opponent!" Chu Zhongtian counterattacked with a slight sarcastic look.

Ribery laughed when she heard his words next to her. In terms of verbal skills, Chu and him were comparable. But Chu didn't show off his ability very much.

Menez's face turned red with excitement from Chu Zhongtian, and he didn't want to talk nonsense to Chu Zhongtian - because he was not as clever as Chu Zhongtian on his mouth - turned around and ran back, but Chu Zhongtian didn't want to let him go. He ran up and kept shouting beside Menez: "I'll pass the ball to you. If you think you have an excellent opportunity, you can do it yourself. But if I and others have better positions than you and the opportunities are better than you, you should pass the ball! Can't you do such a simple thing? Are we a team? Football is a sport of eleven people, so what's the use of you alone?"

He kept these words in his heart for three rounds of league games and wanted to say them to Menez for a long time, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity.

Today, this yellow card made him miss the next round of the league, so he didn't care about the game and told him his opinion of Menez. He didn't care whether the other party could accept it or not. He just wanted to let the other party understand that it was wrong to do so.

"I don't think you can keep up with my pace." Menetz was annoyed and turned his head to Chu Zhongtian and said.

Chu Zhongtian was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Menez to say such words. Then he nodded: "Very good, I'll let you see what our rhythm is. See who can't keep up with whom. The boy from Soxiao." He was angry when he and his teammates were looked down upon by others.

He threw Menez down and turned around and ran away.

※※※ "Chu complained that Menez did not pass the ball to him. The two seemed to have some quarrels..." The TV commentator watched it very carefully. Judging from the expressions of the two, Chu Zhongtian and Menez definitely did not exchange views on each other in a friendly atmosphere.

"From these games, Menez has not yet integrated into the team well. Most of the time he likes to fight alone. But last season Metz had a whole style, Chu was responsible for connecting the entire team, Ribery and Oblaniac were responsible for solving problems. Every attack, regardless of success or not, Chu participated in the whole process. With him running constantly, he mobilized his teammates to participate to the maximum extent. This is a great football. In the last stage of last season, this football helped Metz successfully relegated, and defeated Paris Saint-Germain and Auxerre, drawing Lyon."

Last season, the French commentator Chu Zhongtian was lukewarm and hot. Now their attitude towards Chu Zhongtian has taken a 180-degree turn. He praised Chu Zhongtian as the key figure in the team's successful relegation and a well-deserved core player in the team's midfield.

"Menez must now understand that not everything is around him, and he is not the youngest hat-trick player in Ligue 1 history who deserves privilege. Before becoming a star player, he must first become a professional player."

"But look at Ribery now and think about his performance at the beginning of last season, we are still very confident in coach Fernandez. It is said that Menez joined Metz because of Fernandez's invitation. I believe this relationship between them will be very helpful for Menez to integrate into the team."

Fernandez saw the scene of Chu Zhongtian and Menez arguing, and he shook his head gently.

Tadio came up and asked, "Do you need me to take him to the reserve team to calm down?"

Fernandez hesitated for a moment: "After this game, I'll have a good talk with him and then talk."

It is indeed time to talk to Menez, but before that he has to call Guy Laconbu and ask what's going on.

※※※ Not long after, Proman injured Strasbourg midfielder Sidi Keita (sidi_keita) in defense, and he also received a yellow card. Taking advantage of Keita's chance to receive treatment on the court, Chu Zhongtian called together except for the goalkeeper and Menez's teammates.

Although he is not the captain or the most active person in the locker room, he is the core of the team's tactical field. There is no doubt that he will gather everyone and no one will give him face.

"Remember how we played last season?"

Everyone nodded. Most of the people on the court are the original players from last season. Ahn Jung-hwan was not on the starting list in this game, and the only newcomer is Menez.

"Very good, let's keep kicking like that. You know what to do."

Chu Zhongtian did not say that he should not pass the ball to Menez, but everyone knew that because their thoughts were the same as Chu Zhongtian.

"We play the game the way we look down on us and let the boy who looks down on us see that we can stay in the first league is definitely not because of luck or anything else!"

Everyone agreed and separated.

Now their opponents are not just Starasbourg...※※Menez doesn't know what those people gather together and say, and he doesn't care about this issue. In his eyes, Metz's players are not as strong as him. Only Ribery is OK, but he doesn't like Ribery's bossy style. So he has no one in Metz now, and he doesn't care about it. He is arrogant, a genius, and he doesn't want to date Metz's mediocre people. Anyway, he only needs to attack and draw the city on the court. As long as he performs well, those people will naturally take the initiative to make friends with him. They will realize that giving the ball to him under any circumstances is the only thing they can do, because only in this way can the team keep winning. He is the guarantee for the team to win, and he should be the core of the team.

As the game progressed, Menez found that he could not get a pass. No matter how he raised his hand or shouted, his teammates would not pass the ball to him. Unless he went to grab the ball by himself, he saw that he was a shadow striker, and he would not do anything like snatching the ball.

Chu Zhongtian completely ignored Menez who appeared in his vision many times and just passed the ball to others. Everything was like last season, as if there was no Jeremy Menez in the team at all. They just thought that one person was sent off and fought with ten people. Despite this, the team's performance was better than before. Because their performance seemed to be a whole, the football was very smooth and would not be stuck with someone.

He doesn't care whether the head coach will blame himself during the intermission or whether he will punish himself after the game. Anyway, Coach Fernandez told him to be a commander who adjusts his strategy on the court according to the situation and not stick to the head coach's pre-match arrangements. In other words, he has absolute power on the court and will not accept the orders of the outside king!

"Hey! Pass the ball to me! Pass it to me!" Menez yelled with his hands open as the football rolled past him again.

Ribery, who received the ball next to him, completed a shot and turned around and said to him: "Look at it carefully, this is our football, boy! Don't think that you are the only genius!"

After saying that, he ran back.

Menez didn't understand. He was too lazy to go back to defend, so he stood in front and watched his teammates defend.

After Strasbourg ended an attack, it was Metz's turn to kick the ball. Winby did not move forward with big feet. Since Chu Zhongtian became the core of the team, Winby has become accustomed to giving the ball to Chu Zhongtian who was withdrawn to the response, and then he was responsible for organizing the attack, whether it was a quick counterattack or a slowly advancing positional battle. Every time he saw Chu Zhongtian sorting out the complex and complex situation on the field in an orderly manner, he felt that the brain structure of people and people was indeed different - if he asked him to come out in the same situation, he

It must be the big foot to drive out. Chu Zhongtian always patiently passes the ball and catches the ball, then passes the ball and catches the ball, and then links up a clear path in the process of repeated repetition. At the last step, Wenbi could see clearly from behind, and if he knew what to do. This was really magical. How did Chu think of this step before? At first, Wenbi thought it was a coincidence, but later he knew that he was wrong. It was not a coincidence. It was an opportunity created by Chu Zhongtian using his repeated running and passing and receiving balls!

Chu Zhongtian retreated to the central defender position and received the ball. The forward of Starasbourg came up to press him closely and prevented him from turning around. Chu Zhongtian passed the ball to the central defender beside him, captain Stefan Bobiconi. He cut the run in the air. Without the ball, the opponent naturally stopped guarding him. Without pressure, he signaled Bobiconi to pass the ball to him.

Chu Zhongtian, who received the pass, turned around and drove the ball forward. He soon encountered the defense of the Strasbourg midfielder.

If this ball is replaced by Menez, it will definitely be using his skills and explosive power to break through the opponent and then directly attack Huanglong.

However, before Chu Zhongtian met the opponent, he passed the ball to Arigolo, who rushed back and inserted it to participate in the attack.

Menez saw Chu Zhongtian in front of him and couldn't wait to pass the ball out, and laughed disdainfully. But he couldn't laugh out loud.

After the football was passed to Arigoro, Chu Zhongtian moved closer to him. Ribery also retreated to respond, and it suddenly became the place with the most crowded personnel of Metz. Strasbourg naturally made arrangements for this - they adjusted the defense center and concentrated their forces to intercept Metz's attack in this side corridor.

After Arigoro passed the football to Ribery, Ribery did not stop the ball, but directly stepped on the football to Chu Zhongtian with his heel.

Chu Zhongtian did not stop the ball either. He swung his right foot and directly passed the ball to the left. There, Oblaniak easily received the football because there was no one around him to guard it.

Menetz was shocked when he saw this scene. Although he was arrogant, he was not stupid. He knew the difficulty of passing the ball. Because Chu Zhongtian could not see Oblaniak's position at all before, and it was a long pass that was not stopped at once, which was much more difficult than a short pass that was not stopped at the ball.

You should know that you can pass the ball continuously while running, and you can pass it accurately, which is not something that anyone can do casually.

Strasbourg's defensive centers are all on their left, that is, Metz's right. After Oblaniak received the ball on the other side, Strasbourg's players will adjust their center of gravity, which will take time.

It was during this time difference that Oblaniak dribbled into the penalty area without anyone being guarded.

Without anyone disturbing, Oblaniak passed the ball to the middle, and Sebastian Reynold, who followed, easily pushed the ball to score!

The entire offensive process is clearly visible. Menez has been watching, from the beginning to see the end. When Oblaniak received the ball and broke into the penalty area, he didn't even have time to follow up - he never expected that Metz's attack would hit Strasbourg's penalty area so quickly. So he missed the opportunity to score the first goal after joining the team on behalf of Metz.

After scoring the goal, Reynold ran to Oblaniak who assisted him, and other Metz players rushed over. They ran over from Menez and didn't even look at the genius prodigy at a glance.

Only Ribery ran over in front of Menez and did not forget to mock him: "Why didn't you keep up with the attack just now? Ahha?"

He and Chu Zhongtian met, hugged each other's shoulders and ran towards Reynold, who was celebrating the goal.

"Beautiful job, do you see the expression on that boy's face? Haha!" Ribery gave Chu Zhongtian a thumbs up.

Cheers from Metz fans sounded in the stands at the Forian Stadium in Saint Mountain.

This was the first home goal Metz scored in the new season, and they waited for four rounds.

Menetz looked at his teammates hugging each other to celebrate the goal, and he felt mixed feelings and didn't know what it tasted for a moment.

During the entire goal process, no player has ever played a fancy footwork. They just do the simplest pass, catch and dribble, but they have created a goal. Reynold scored the goal only once, but how do he usually do it?

※※※Fernandez and the coaches both raised their hands and walked out of the coach's seat after seeing the goal.

"Ahaha! This goal was so beautiful! A teamwork victory!!" someone shouted.

Fernandez applauded, but his eyes were on Menez.

I hope this goal will give Menez a lesson.

A class called "Mutual Respect and Cooperation".

Young Menez, you still have a long way to go.

※※Mes finally defeated Strasbourg at home with this goal and won the first victory of the new season.

Menez was substituted in the 70th minute. Including this game, Menez started for four consecutive rounds, and was replaced in advance for four consecutive rounds of the league without any injuries or exhaustion of physical strength.

Everyone knows that Coach Fernandez is very dissatisfied with him. Now the media are speculating when Fernandez will completely throw Menez into the cold palace, no longer starts, and even let him in the roster.

He gave Ribery enough patience, but would he give Menez enough patience?
